Email Virus Scanning May 17, 2006
Posted by Guy Cook in : Features, Hosting , trackbackEmail Virus Scanning There is hardly an email user in the world that hasn’t experienced the unfortunate consequences of a virus, worm or Trojan Horse. According to a recent survey conducted by ICSA Labs, “More than three-quarters of the respondents surveyed feel that the overall virus problem is somewhat worse or much worse than last year.” 
For this reason, we have partnered with Symantec to offer email virus scanning technology for email accounts.
In 2001, 99% of computer virus infections were spread through the use of Internet services. According to a recent survey released by ICSA Labs, “In addition to being more prevalent in surveyed corporations, computer viruses were more costly, more destructive, and caused more real damage to data and systems than in the past.” With these facts in mind, it becomes painfully obvious that protecting companies and Internet users alike from the threat of email borne viruses should be of paramount concern for any email user.
You can protect your email account from receiving a computer virus and spreading it to your systems and hardware as well as your friends, family, colleagues and co-workers. Email Virus Scanning will help safeguard your data from corruption or destruction by:
- Checking for virus definition updates every hour!
- Using Symantec’s artificial intelligence, known as Bloodhound ™, to scan all email traffic for unknown malicious code
- Using real-time virus definition updates from Symantec to identify known threats
- Replacing threatening code and infected attachments with a text file notification indicating a problem.
